Bernadette Jiyong Frank Paintings

Korean, b. 1964
By integrating the concept of "Ma" into her artistic practice, Bernadette Jiyong Frank (Tokyo, 1964) invites viewers to embrace the significance of silence, emptiness, and the intervals between events. Her work creates a space for contemplation and highlights the meaningful presence that exists within the void. Bernadette Jiyong Frank employs multiple layers of translucent paint in her artwork. Each layer is applied slowly and deliberately, allowing time for the paint to dry before applying the next layer. This process creates depth and richness in the final piece. Time plays a significant role in Jiyong Frank's artistic process. By adhering to the practice of applying only one layer per day, she emphasizes the importance of patience and reflection. This approach acknowledges the passage of time as an integral part of the creative journey. The act of applying each layer of paint is considered a meditative process for Jiyong Frank. This suggests that she approaches her work with a sense of mindfulness and introspection, channeling her focus into each brushstroke. The meditative quality of her application technique likely contributes to the contemplative nature of her artworks. Jiyong Frank views the application of each layer as an act of creating space within the artwork. As the layers accumulate over time, they contribute to the overall dimensionality of the piece. This technique allows the viewer to engage with the artwork on multiple levels, both visually and conceptually.
